Joe Jordan - Spiraling Down Lyrics

Mama tried to keep me well
Tried to save me from myself
Tried to keep me from a world that's full of candy coated pills
Didn't know what to do with all this dark
Young man shouldn't have this heavy a heart
Listen boy, stop chasing all those thrills
Seek and you shall find
Don't lie
Be kind
Do what you know you should
Do right
Be good
Mama what if I don't know how
What if my eyes never open
What if God heals everyone but me
And I end up twice as broken
What if bad's so deep inside my bones
Cancer just keeps growing, oh
What if I never make you proud
What if I keep spiraling down
Dad he tried to steer me right
Beat my ass a thousand times
I'll admit I used to hate him until one day I knew why
Didn't know what to do with all this bad
Young man shouldn't have to feel like that
And I'm damn lucky I had a dad saying
Do what you know you should
Do right
Be good ah be good
But daddy what if I don't know how
What if my eyes never open
What if God heals everyone but me
And I end up twice as broken
What if bad's so deep inside my bones
Cancer just keeps growing
What if I never make you proud
What if I keep spiraling down
I'm spiraling down
Oh love your neighbor as yourself
Well I don't really like myself
And I'm not one for making friends
Love your God with all your heart
But it's hard to love with a broken heart
And I don't care to play to pretend
Do what you know you should
Do right
Be good
But Jesus what if I don't know how
What if my eyes never open
What if God heals everyone but me
And I end up twice as broken
What if bad's so deep inside my bones
Cancer just keeps growing, oh
What if I never make You proud
Oh, what if I keep spiraling down
What if I keep spiraling down
